RSHIFT — Right shift bits#

RSHIFT(I, SHIFT)#

RSHIFT returns a value corresponding to I with all of the bits shifted right by SHIFT places. SHIFT shall be nonnegative and less than or equal to BIT_SIZE(I), otherwise the result value is undefined. Bits shifted out from the right end are lost. The fill is arithmetic: the bits shifted in from the left end are equal to the leftmost bit, which in two’s complement representation is the sign bit.

Parameters:
  • I – The type shall be INTEGER.

  • SHIFT – The type shall be INTEGER.

Returns:

The return value is of type INTEGER and of the same kind as I.

Standard:

GNU extension

Class:

Elemental function

Syntax:
RESULT = RSHIFT(I, SHIFT)
